For each and every wall that’s ever stood has a storySome are not so obvious and some are self-explanatoryI have a padded wall in my laboratoryThey're lookin through the keyhole of my dormitoryMeanwhile, up in my observatory, my telescope sees the gloryAnd it also sees the horror and the gory they speak derogatoryThese walls in this little room I sitSpeak of the shit inside my headThings that were heard but never said, instead the walls bleedAnd while they’re bleedingI observe all the people cheating, holding undercover meetings

Now tell me what the world would be If people's walls did not have windows You would hardly ever catch a criminal or see the swindleSee the puzzled thoughts that they try to assembleA private penitentiary at home is what it might resembleSee my window pane contains so much painThe glass is busting out the frame

So let the candle kindle in the window as a symbolI leave my window open hoping that I might get a breezeBut when the wind comes in the eyes come inand eyes don't seem to want to leaveBecause spying eyes try eyeing the prize and eyeing on my movementYou can change your wall and windows But its harder than home improvementCause looky looos are always trying To you look inside your windowThe walls will echo every time your voice crescendosIt's enough to make you tremble, leave you in limboCan it also be simple?

Because these are fundamentals for the mental so don't get sentimentalBecause these are not your windowsthese walls are really rentalsThey know everything your intoAnd all the business that you tend toSo keep your windows rolled upand don't hold up the wall against the floorAnd while you're window shoppingdon't bother stopping at my storeI put a note in the window, but they couldn't read what is said So I took a rock and carved it in the glass and is what it read.

Behind these peeling walls, I see the light and I’ve had it allWreaking balls don't bounce against the wall to make my whole building fallUncovering answers seem so complexMy words are taken all out of contextLike the wall of Berlin and the wall of ChinaI leave my tag on your wall as a little reminder
